distally; also the tongue of the distal bell is eut off rather transversally distally; proximally
of the belis these bristles are furnished with short hairs, which are either rather fine or
compara-tively coarse; at least some of them are arranged in a few wreaths; sometimes these hairs seem
to be almost completely absent. The end comb (fig. 14) consists of about eleven to seventeen
teeth of moderate length and strength, decreasing somewhat in length the more proximally tliev
are situated. These teeth are furnished proximally on botli sides with a powerful secondary
spine and are rather well rounded distally; they are provided on each side with a thin wing-like
process, which in most cases, as far as 1 could see, did not continue as free points (as is the case
in Ph. (Ph.) globosa). The cavity dorsally of the end comb is rather deep. Between the end
comb and the distal dorsal bristles there are two parallel and somewhat irregulär rows, running

longitudinally, of rather short, claviform, smooth chitinous pegs, each row comprising about
four or five pegs (sometimes somewhat fewer, broken?).
Furca (fig. 15): — This has ten claws, decreasing fairly uniformly in length and strength
posteriorly. On the three posterior claws there are no long, stiff bristles proximo-medially.
Otherwise it is about the same as in Ph. (Ph.) globosa.
Rod-shaped organ: — This is of quite the same type as in Ph. ( Ph.) globosa; its
length is a little more than 0,3 mm.

Remark: — On account of the incompleteness of the original description of this species
I wrote to Professor G. O. SARS for permission to re-examine the type-specimen. In answer
to my request Professor SARS informed me that the type-specimen seemed unfortunately to have
been lost, but sent me at the same time, however, two specimens (one male and one female)
taken at Vallö, Christiania Fjord, thus near the type-locality which had been determined bv
him as belonging to this species. The determination of G. O. Sars’ is presumably quite correct.
The new description of this species given above is based on this female; of course several other
specimens were also taken into account. — The male sent by G. O. SARS was unfortunately so
dirty that it was not suitable for description and reproduction.
